Chinese Shrimp Toast

crispy chinese shrimp toast

This light and airy appetizer is made of crispy bread and fluffy shrimp paste. Chinese shrimp toast is usually served at dim sum. Usually the shrimp toast is fried in oil, but this recipe uses an air-fryer. It’s less oily and healthier!

I love to add some mayo on top for an extra creamy flavor.

Ingredients you need for your shrimp toast:

  • large shrimp
  • salt
  • sugar
  • white pepper
  • corn starch
  • egg white
  • green onion
  • cilantro or jalapeno
  • white bread
  • sesame seeds
  • light olive oil
  • kewpie mayo

Steps to make the shrimp toast:

  1. Prep the cilantro and green onions. Chop 4 stalks of cilantro (can be replaced with green onion or jalapeno) finely and slice 1 green onion.
  2. Peel and devein the shrimp. Start to dice and chop the shrimp with a knife until the shrimp becomes a paste. Alternatively, you can put the shrimp in a food processor if you don’t want to dice the shrimp. I like to chop it by hand because I like the different textures of the shrimp.
  3. Next, mix the shrimp with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, pinch of white pepper, 1 tablespoon corn starch, 1 egg white, chopped cilantro and sliced green onion. You want to mix in one direction for one minute until the mixture is well combined. Mixing the meat filling in one direction helps with myosin development. Myosin is a protein that helps bind the meat together. This results in a stickier and tender filling.
  4. Cut the white bread in squares (4 squares for each slice of bread). You may cut off the crusts if you like but I don’t like to waste the bread.
  5. Place 1 tbs of shrimp filling on top of the white bread and add some sesame seeds to garnish.
  6. Before baking, add some 1-2 tablespoons of light olive oil and sesame seeds to the top of the shrimp toast. You can air fry or bake the shrimp toast at 375F for 8-9 minutes. Top with some kewpie mayo and hope you enjoy!

Summer brings sweet corn and delicious corn recipe Summer brings sweet corn and delicious corn recipes! I love using udon for this dish because it’s extra chewy and cooks quicker than pasta. However, this would also work with your favorite pasta of choice. You can check out the full recipe link in b!oooo 🥰🙏🏼

My favorite part of this dish is definitely the corn broth. It’s sweet and I love to use it like pasta water ◡̈

#ad Sharing one of my favorite recipes to make wit #ad Sharing one of my favorite recipes to make with instant ramen – Korean Army Stew! I get pretty hungry at night, but sometimes the combo of spicy instant ramen and late-night snacking can trigger my heartburn. Luckily, @Pepcid Complete starts to work in seconds and controls acid all day or night, providing me with effective heartburn relief, so that eating super spicy (and delicious) foods is not a problem. #EatConfidently.

Search “Korean Army Stew” on my blog to see the full recipe. You can visit Pepcid.com or tap the link in my story to purchase.

Mango pudding is the perfect dessert if you’re l Mango pudding is the perfect dessert if you’re looking for something light and not too sweet. A huge shoutout to @yejinsarah for the recipe request ◡̈ so happy to make this cause I LOVE MANGO! The pudding is made with mango puree and coconut milk🥭

This type of mango pudding would generally be served for dessert at chinese restaurants. I’m even more stoked when you can get the mango pudding for free instead of the tong siu hahaha

My first time catching a fish and getting to cook My first time catching a fish and getting to cook it. Super grateful for this experience and so proud of Theo for catching like 10+ halibut. Don’t worry we only took home 3 halibut, 1 cod, 2 salmon and adhered to the fish regulations 🥰Thanks for all your suggestions on how we should cook the fish! Chinese style and sushi was the top ways to cook it and Chinese style (ginger, scallions and hot oil) won ◡̈

Hope you enjoyed this adventure!
